Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Screen Mirroring at free with in-app purchases against Encryptor's subscription. Screen Mirroring also leads on rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (269 vs 29). Encryptor's advantage is review sentiment (57% vs 24%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Screen Mirroring sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Encryptor sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Screen Mirroring holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Screen Mirroring has 269 ratings behind it against 29, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of Screen Mirroring's written reviews are positive against 57% of Encryptor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Screen Mirroring ships an update every 2 months, Encryptor fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
